Seasons Greetings, Amanda!
Thank you for stopping by the Disney Parks Moms Panel with your spark-tacular question about
Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party at Magic Kingdom Park.
Amanda, although the official Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party time is 7:00 p.m.-12:00 a.m. ET, you will be allowed to enter Magic Kingdom Park at 4:00 p.m. ET with your valid Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party ticket. Party entertainment will not begin until 7:00 p.m., but entering early allows you to explore Magic Kingdom Park, eat dinner and capture magical pre-party memories. I highly suggest eating dinner during this time in order to maximize your party time later! Skip the dessert — there will be plenty of delicious, complimentary holiday treats available for you to enjoy during Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party.
With so many surprises and excitement around every corner, it’s easy to become overwhelmed about trying to experience all that Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party has to offer. There is one experience in particular that I think you should not miss. Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade is the merriest and most magical parade available at Walt Disney World Resort! This parade offers the chance to see some of the most iconic Disney characters donning their favorite attire, life-size toy soldiers and dancing reindeer. You can even catch a glimpse of Santa himself! I get excited just thinking about the sights, sounds and scents you will enjoy during Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade. You have two chances to catch it during the party. Please do not miss it or you may end up saying "Bah! Humbug!"
If you have any other questions before, during or after your vacation please visit us again. We are all ears!
Wishing you a Magical Holiday Season,
Priscila
